Kiara
I should have known nothing will be easy in this pack, ever. I sigh to myself. lissa really thought I would keep sothing so important as being a fox shifter from my mate? She has always been a slutty dumbass, that clearly hasn’t changed much. I internally roll my eyes. If only she knew that Winter is Maze’s true mate. I am his true mate. It probably wouldn’t make a difference for her. She has always been a bitch, even when we were kids, and she was always the princess of her family who were so of the best warriors for our pack. I almost gag. I heard she is mated to Callan, the Beta. I hope for him it’s not true. She will not be a good Beta female.
I zone back into the conversation when dad says he has so news regarding the current ranking in the pack, and a request for and Maze, more for Maze at this current ti than because I have not been crowned yet.
"What is going on dad?" I ask him, as Benedict whimpers. Mom hugs him close, sitting him on her lap.
"Well, my old ranked mbers all decided to retire themselves and give their titles to their young ones. So Callan and his mate are now my Beta couple, while my new gamma is Hector and his mate. Hector is the younger brother, if you rember him?" I search my mory.
"The one who always swore he would never be ranked because it’s not for him and he’d rather be a teacher or sothing like that?" Dad nods. "How are you doing with that?" He swallows.
"Your mother and I have made a hard decision, baby. We’ve talked it over with each other for so ti and then with Benedict." My little brother nods, his head held high, but there are tears in his eyes. "We no longer find ourselves fit to be the Alpha and Luna of White Mountain, but we also do not see anyone here actually be equipped to take over the position and lead the pack to anything good. We have failed. Mostly you, Kiara." My eyes go wide, and Maze grabs my hand.
"What are you saying?"
"We have talked to different packs around us, and old ho packs for those who moved for their mates. They are willing to accept people back, and new people into their packs. We want to dismantle White Mountain and move to Silver Moon as regular mbers. To be close to our daughter and our daughter to have her family close." He gives a loving look. Maze is quiet for so ti.
"What would you need of , uncle?" Dad sighs.
"We need your permission, and we need you to denounce every ranked mber. We don’t want ANY of them to try sothing in the future." Maze raises an eyebrow.
"Have they done anything..."
"lissa is the Beta female.." Mom interrupts and Maze growls.
"Done..." He says with a dark expression. Mom gives him a big smile.
"Thought that would get your attention." She chuckles at Maze’s expression and I kiss his cheek. "And we would love to move to Silver Moon if you would allow us? We are already packed and will be following you back ho tomorrow or tonight. We don’t want to stay here." A tear slide down her cheek. "We should have done more when you were little Kiara, or acted differently, but we didn’t. We are not going to give a ton of excuses. This is our fault. But people here are awful to us, to each other and favors shift day to day. So things gotta give at so point, and sothing is us."
"Alright, we will get back to this, but speaking of sothing completely off topic; Kiara is going to have her Luna ceremony and coronation tomorrow night under the full moon and we would love to have you there." Maze says, rendering my parents speechless for a mont. It’s Benedict who breaks the silence.
"So, you are going to be a real Queen tomorrow, sissy? Do I have to bow to you then?" I laugh at his innocent question.
"No, little brother. You are my family, and you will never have to bow to or anything. You can call sissy all your life if you want." I tell him, as he throws himself from moms arms into mine. I kiss his hair.
"Mom says I am not going to be Alpha anymore." He mumbles. I kiss him again, bringing him out into stretched arms.
"One day, Benedict, you will have your own pack to lead. I am sure of it, but right now it is for the best that that pack is not White Mountain." He nods solemnly.
"Are you sure?"
"That you will have a pack one day?" He nods. "Yes, I have no doubt about that. And you will learn about pack life and work from the King. No better teacher than a King." I tell him, turning him to look at Maze who gives us a wide grin.
"I would be honored to teach you the ropes when you are older, Benedict. You have a good head on your shoulders, little man." Benedict gives him the biggest smile.
After that we ask if mom and dad would mind to show us around the pack lands? They do, and Frida and Alastair join us. They are both fuming with anger for so reason. They are hiding it so my parents can’t sense it, but I can. I give Frida a look and she mindlinks . She’ll fill in when we are behind closed doors, but it is bad here. I nod, letting Maze know.
As we walk around the pack, pack mbers refuse to acknowledge . They bow respectfully to Maze and my parents, but they blatantly ignore by his side. Maze is getting more and more agitated by the second. I have to hold his hand and remind him to calm down more often than not. My parents try their best to hide their own anger, but people here are so obvious.
At so point we co by the warrior training grounds where Callan and lissa are running training together. They notice us coming, saying sothing to the people training, and when we are near enough a smug looking female walks forward.
"I challenge the fox to a duel to the death for the position as Luna and Queen." She says clearly. I only raise an eyebrow looking her over. Callan seems to disagree, but he doesn’t do anything to stop it.
"No you won’t, Aliya." Dad says, but the woman just ignores him.
"Yes, I do. You do not order old man. I am tired of you and your ’we need to accept trash’ ways. I will challenge the slut once and for all." lissa laughs. I look at her.
"Why doesn’t lissa challenge herself, or she is perhaps coming as challenger number 10 or sothing so I am tired when she cos up against ?" I look her in the eyes. Maze wraps his arms around , growing at the female in front of us. lissa sneers.
"I am not afraid, but I am mated." She says with disgust.
"Never stopped you before. Everyone knows you are the one who has slept with most mated and unmated males in this pack. Even inviting your cronies into bed when you are bored." She screams and shifts, charging against . I knew that would get to her. I push Maze out of the way, shifting into Winter and dodging the she wolf. It’s ti these ignorant fuckers learn who the Queen is. .
